Thousands of people from around the world pitched their ideas to our panel of judges at five casting calls held around the United States. In Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Providence and San Jose, lines of anxious inventors wrapped around convention centers hoping for their chance to become an 'Everyday Edison.' Our cameras caught all the excitement and drama from each Everyday Edisons casting call held across the country, giving viewers a backstage pass to nervous inventors just before they made their pitch. And when the casting dust settled, our viewers will meet five of the nine inventors for this season of Everyday Edisons, hear what inspired them and learn just why our judges were impressed.
